That's a blue wolf!
An iron-blooded division that is even more powerful than the 'elite' army of the great powers, the blue wolf's prestige is completely beaten, and it is forged with the blood and bones of the Japanese and Russians!
Yuan Shikai's brows furrowed tightly, things are in trouble, now Li Hongzhang has fallen into the hands of Zhang Yi, then his second plan, it will all be in vain, without Li Hongzhang, even if he wants to set up a temporary government, who can take on the role of the interim president, don't look at Zhang Zhi's 'hole', this old man has always regarded himself as a leader of the clear stream, cherishing feathers, being the president at this time, the infamy will ruin the reputation he has accumulated all his life, he will definitely not do it.
Liu Kunyi was still scolding angrily beside him.
Yuan Shikai said in a deep voice: "Everyone, now we must act immediately, no matter what Quan Shuai says, he is also an old minister of the Qing Dynasty, and his prestige is very high, and he must not be held hostage by the people of the Republic of China, we must immediately rush to He'fei' and snatch the old Zhongtang back!" ”
Liu Kun snorted coldly and replied, "What? Weiting, can't we do great things without Quan Shuai? ”
Zhang Zhi's 'hole' hurriedly persuaded him: "Da Shuai, now is the critical moment, we can't tolerate the struggle of our will, in the face of the great powers, none of us have the ability to fight left and right, and Quan Weng must be snatched back." ”
Liu Kun snorted coldly and said, "How to rob it?" ”
Yuan Shikai smiled and said: "Xian Shuai, now Quan Shuai is really in Anhui, this is the jurisdiction of your Liangjiang Governor, I and Xiang Shuai and others are only afraid that it will be difficult to be caught off guard for a while, and we will have to borrow your prestige and troops." ”
Liu Kunyi was angry, and said disdainfully: "It's just a few blue wolves, they are not more than a hundred, and they can't become any climate, so I will give an order, Lord Deng, now Li Hongzhang is still 'fat'?" ”
Deng Huaxi replied: "My lord, now I have deployed a battalion of troops in He'fei to closely monitor Li Zhongtang's mansion, and so far, they have not moved. ”
Liu Kun shouted: "Immediately mobilize two 'elite' training camps for me in He'fei', surround Li Zhongtang's mansion for me, I must defeat the blue wolf, and snatch the Lord Zhongtang out for me, no matter what, I can't let them take the old Zhongtang hostage to the northeast!" ”
Deng Huaxi hurriedly nodded and agreed, and went down to send a telegram to Anqing.
Sheng Xuanhuai replied in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, let's get here today, let's see how things turn out in Quan Weng, and in the next step, you can rest at will in the hotel, this place has been all taken down by the lower officials." ”
The crowd dispersed.
Yuan Shikai walked out of the hall, saw Xu Shichang outside, and said in a low voice: "Brother Juren, now that things have changed dramatically, Quan Shuai has been captured by the blue wolf, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to succeed." Now we must grab the two palaces, call Qimei, and let him personally lead people to act, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, quickly! ”
Xu Shichang was shocked, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it!" ”
In Li Hongzhang's mansion, there are now three or four hundred Qing troops guarding at various intersections, for fear that Li Hongzhang will run away.
Zhang Peilun held the telegram sent by Zhang Yi in his hand, and his heart was also worried, now that the outside has been surrounded by the Qing army, it is difficult to take Li Hongzhang out, after all, no matter how powerful the blue wolf is, there are only a few dozen people, and the ammunition is limited.
Zhang Peilun came to Li Hongzhang's side and said in a low voice: "Lord Yue, we have to go now, look at the situation outside, the Qing army has already surrounded us, and when Deng Huaxi gets the new will of the two palaces, he will do it immediately, and then the 'jade' stone will be burned." ”
Li Hongzhang sneered and replied, "Two palaces? Now can the holy decree of the two palaces reach Anhui? Within two days, I am afraid that the coalition army will break through the city of Beijing, and when the time comes, where will Lafayette go to send a telegram? Without Lafayette's will, who would dare to touch the old man? Lend them a dar! ”
Zhang Peilun said hurriedly: "Lord Yue, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, these situations are 'chaotic' and 'chaotic', no one knows how the situation will develop, we should be careful." ”
Liu Wanlin said on the side: "Lao Zhongtang, our president has given us a strict order, we must bring you back to Fengtian safely, even if the blue wolf is all folded here, we must complete the task, now we have time to go, the hundreds of Qing troops outside can't withstand our few charges, but if the real army comes, then we will be too late." ”
Li Hongzhang still didn't agree to go north, and at this time, an old family member hurriedly ran up and said, "Lao Ye, your telegram was sent by Lord Sheng Xuanhuai in Shanghai!" ”
Zhang Peilun snatched the telegram, glanced at it hastily, and said hurriedly: "My father-in-law, things have changed, several governors are secretly discussing in Shanghai, and they refuse to obey the edict for the will of King Qin of the imperial court, and they will also implement southeast self-reliance when the two palaces are unexpected, and I want you to come forward as the interim president, this, this is to roast you on the fire." ”
Li Hongzhang's face changed, and he shouted: "Show it to me!" ”
Li Hongzhang took the telegram and watched it carefully, indeed, Sheng Xuanhuai wrote clearly in the telegram, inviting Quan Weng to come to Shanghai as soon as possible to discuss important matters.
Li Hongzhang's face is 'pale' and 'cloudy', if it was in his previous life, although he was demoted to the governor of Liangguang, but he is still in power, the entire Qing Dynasty is the only one he can say in front of the great powers, he naturally has the prestige and strength to take over the position of interim president, but now he has returned to his hometown, the Huai system has collapsed, and then sit as the interim president at this time, isn't it in vain to be used as a gun by those governors, no matter what, Li Hongzhang will not do such a stupid thing!
Liu Wanlin hurriedly said: "Lao Zhongtang, the matter is urgent, we can't hesitate, you must know that Deng Huaxi is also among Yuan Shikai's invitations, the matter of the blue wolf scaring him away will definitely be spread, when the time comes, I am afraid that Yuan Shikai and Liu Kunyi, who are in a hurry, will really jump over the wall and attack you!" Li Hongzhang hesitated slightly, after all, all his family members are here, and all the foundations of the entire Li family are here, if he leaves, things will be difficult to do, what should the family do? Zhang Peilun saw Li Hongzhang's concerns, and said: "Lord Yue, you don't have to worry, Yuan Shikai is your confidant who has been cultivated for many years, even if there is some estrangement now, it will not be difficult for the family, not to mention Xingsun, you are all over the world in the southeast, if you want to keep the foundation of the Li family, there will be no problem, the most important thing now is to quickly protect you before the army arrives, this black pot can't be carried!" ”
